Hindsight, 20/20 vision
Wish we knew, we never listen
Point of view was not omniscient
We won't skew, remain efficient
When they come alive
Civilization goes down the drain
We let the water rise
But we couldn't know what's waiting out of frame

Bury your panic
Can you feel the static?
Monochromatic
When the bomb stops ticking
There goes the planet

When you get up close, it gets so cut-throat
Everybody's out of focus when you try to flush, so
Let's turn up THX and face your fears
You drown now in surround sound, in surround sound

Watch while this old world collapses
Screams echo onto our synapses
It's the end of the world as we know it
Wasted, overflowing
It's painful to slo-mo it

The tempered glass was your straitjacket
But you cracked it

Bury your panic
Can you feel the static?
Monochromatic
If you turn on the screen
Then we'll shatter the ceramic

When you get up close, it gets so cut-throat
Everybody out of focus when you try to flush, so
Turn, turn up THX and face your fears
You drown now in surround sound, in surround sound

Hindsight, 20/20 vision
Wish you knew, you never listen
Point of view was not omniscient
We won't skew, remain efficient
When we come alive
Civilization goes down the drain
We let the water rise
But we couldn't know what's waiting out of frame

Afterburn, aperture
Crashed and cursed
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Slapped and spurred
Hold back the hurt
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Afterburn, aperture
Crashed and cursed
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Slapped and spurred
Hold back the hurt

Afterburn, aperture
Crashed and cursed
Slapped and spurred
Hold back the hurt
Afterburn, aperture
Crashed and cursed
Slapped and spurred
Hold back the hurt
